Wonderland Blog Tag

So... I was tagged a little while ago with this tag and since I'm working on A Matter of Curiosity book two in a duology inspired by Alice in Wonderland for Camp NaNo, I thought that now was the perfect time to delve into the twisted world of Wonderland.

The Wonderlander-ful Rules

1. Link back and thank the person who tagged you. (Tagged by the fantabulous Merie Shen at https://imperialscribis.wordpress.com/)

2. Link back to the creator of the tag, Catwing.

3. Tag a random number of Wonder-ful bloggers and notify them (Probably not all the way to an eight that fell over, but whatever number that isn’t too high over 20/20. (Your vision can only be so good.) But not less than nothing, that makes some people’s heads spin. (Don’t take this ramble too seriously) :P)

4. You can use the creator’s tag graphic if you like.

5. Have fun!

1-ish. If you could be any creature (real, wonderland-ish, or otherwise) what would it be?

It's a toss up between dragons and faeries. I suppose that since I'm choosing to be one it would be faeries, but if I could be a dragon that could shapeshift into human form that would also be awesome.

But in all honesty, I would probably go with faeries because magical powers beat shapeshifting in my humble opinion.

1/2. Think of one/halves to five/ones of impossible things. What are they?

I actually finish A Time of Trepidation. I somehow do something without first procrastinating. Super powers (a pity though). I am actually a faerie or a dragon. A half breed of some kind? I'm actually tall.

3 is odd. How is a raven like a writing desk?

They can both produce notes but they are rather flat... or something or the other.

4/4. Do you have a character named Alice?

Sort of, her name is Alicia actually. She's actually based off of Alice in Wonderland.

"I shouldn’t feel this way, but I can’t help but think that I’m Humpty Dumpty and I’m tottering. And when I fall, I’m never going to be put back together again."

She's awesome and probably the sweetest of my heroines, and the most naive. She is very agreeable, and imaginative. Also she's slightly crazy, magical, and in way over her head.

5/8. The Queen of Hearts thinks you have stolen her tarts, so she yells, “Off with their head” What do you do?

If I'm a dragon then I'll transform into my firebreathing self and get the heck out of dodge because not even a dragon is going to stand up to the Queen of Hearts. If I'm actually a faerie then I'll use my devious mind to trick her into thinking that she is mistaken and someone else ate her tarts (I probably ate them though). If I'm a human, however, I suppose I will simply offer to bake her some more tarts.

6/0. Red or blue?

Blue, definitely. It's in the big three of colors so of course it has to be blue.

7-ies. It is tea time. What is your favorite tea or hot beverage?

I don't drink tea, or coffee even so hot cocoa all the way!

 0/8. What type of flower are you?

Eh, I had to take a quiz for this. Apparently I am a Heather?

Look at that, I'm so pretty

6/9. The dormouse asks you, “Hats or hares? Or was it hairs?” (Warning: some are March-y and/or Mad)

It depends on the hat. I love me a good top hat or stetson, so they would get the one up on a hare because I prefer rabbits anyway. If that makes any sense XD

10/6. Where are you headed? Somewhere, Nowhere, Everywhere,  Over There, Elsewhere?

I'm definitely headed everywhere and I've been heading there for quite a while.

Reality is Cracking...

And since it is my Camp NaNo project I suppose I can share a little bit about A Matter of Curiosity. My goal is to write the entire book this month. The first draft of book 1 was about 99k words so I'm estimating that this one will be 90-something thousand words. So far I am to 24k words. So only 60-something thousand words to go right? *dies* XD I'm to chapter sixteen. Book one was thirty-five chapters long so I suppose we shall see if this will be more or less than that.

I'm finally past the beginning. Now we're getting onto the main plot.

So there you have it! Wasn't that just wonderland-ful? But wait, there's more. Because now I tag:

Nicole Dust
and
Quinley

Now it's your turn to talk! What is your favorite Alice in Wonderland retelling that you have read? Who is your favorite character from Alice in Wonderland? What kind of flower are you? Comment below!
